Dancing in the Minefields Lyrics

Well I was nineteen, you were twenty-one
The year we got engaged
Everyone said we were much too young
But we did it anyway
We got the rings for forty each, from a p***shop down the road
We said your vows and took the leap, now fifteen years ago
We went dancing in the minefields
We went sailing in the storm
And it was harder than we dreamed
But I believe that's what the promise is for

Well "I do" are the two most famous last words
The beginning of the end
But to lose your life for another I've heard is a good place to begin
'Cause the only way to find your life is to lay your own life down
And I belieive it's an easy price for the love that we have found
That's what the promise is for
So when I lose my way, find me
When I loose love's chains, bind me
At the end of all my faith
to the end of all my days
when I forget my name, remind me

'Cause we bear the light of the son of man
So there's nothing left to fear
So I'll walk with you in the shadowlands
'Till the shadows disappear
'Cause he promised not to leave us
And his promises are true
So in the face of all this chaos, baby
I can dance with you
So let's go dancing in the minefields
Let's go sailing in the storms
Oh, let's go dancing in the minefields
And kicking down the doors
Oh, let's go dancing in the minefields
And sailing in the storms
Oh, this is harder than we dreamed
But I believe that's what the promise is for
That's what the promise is for
